This essay attempts to prove that Jennifer Toth(re)presents the tunnels beneath New York City as a real-and-imagined space and how the space is depicted as a heterotopia, a counter-site of the city on the surface. The tunnels are also the space where the capitalist system is deterritorialized and reterritorialized. In contrast with the capitalist way of life on the surface, the “mole people” choose (or, are “forced” to choose) squatting over property ownership, panhandling over wage labor, and recycling over production for their means of life.
